As we inch closer to the 2024 NFL Draft, we will hear some surprise names in first-round discussions that organizations have been valuing higher than fans and the media.
This is a tried and true tradition in the draft, and one that Cowboys fans are familiar with.
In each of the last two Cowboys drafts, we started to hear rumblings about their strong first-round interest in Tyler Smith and Mazi Smith after both floated under the radar in the months leading up to their respective drafts.
This also happened in 2018 with the recently-retired Leighton Vander Esch.
The point here is, as much as we are all familiar with the likely names the Cowboys could target in the first round, it is still only March. We might be completely off from where they are actually looking.
Before the smoke starts to come out about Dallas’s interest in a player fans have not been looking into, like with the Smiths in 2022 and 2023, we should be looking at all options.
With a draft class as deep as this one, anything is possible.
Let’s take a look at three players who are not in first-round talks now, but could end up holding a Cowboys draft jersey on stage in April.
